windows 7 is micro$oft's next release of operating system set to replace vista. according to bbc news, windows 7 is set to be released on Oct 22, 2009, and in UK, it'll cost £79.99 for an upgrade version.
if you would like try it for free, grab the release candidate by end July 09. it's recommended NOT to install on a system that you're using currently using for work/play/study. i've tried installing it on a kohjinsha sh, and it's running OK, except the cpu is not fast enough so you'll need some patience for things to load. but it's installable, runable and usable, quite surprised (:
and btw, the worldwide upgrade option programme is due to begin only on 26 June, which means those pple who bought their computers some two weeks ago at pc show missed their free upgrade chance? hmm ... ...
If you need a FREE screen capture software, you'll love FastStone Capture after trying it out. Version 5.3 is able to:
- Capture Active window
- Capture a/an window/object
- Capture a freehand region
- Capture a scrolling window (this is what I find MOST useful)
and save it to six difference destinations. And in the "Options", you can specify the dot-pitch of the screen capture, the destination folder, auto-startup with windows etc.

in the midst of writing a (next-to-meaningless) term paper and my mind drifted off (not surprising) and the word "Logo" came to mind.
gotten this off wikipedia:
Logo is a computer programming language used for functional programming. It is an easier to read adaptation and dialect of the Lisp language; some have called it "Lisp without the parentheses." It was created for educational use, more so for constructivist teaching, by Daniel G. Bobrow, Wally Feurzeig and Seymour Papert. Today, it is known mainly for its "turtle graphics", but it also has significant facilities for handling lists, files, I/O, and recursion. Logo can be used to teach most computer science concepts, as UC Berkeley Lecturer Brian Harvey does in his "Computer Science Logo Style" trilogy.
here's a sample of logo's code.
to get a copy of the berkeley's logo, visit Brian Harvey's home page or George Mills' MSWLogo page.
if you are hunting for a firewall software and you'll like something that's FREE (and good of coz), get ZoneAlarm Free.
Welcome to the intersection of ZoneAlarm® ingenuity and philosophy. Since day one we have been giving away our award shattering firewall for free. Why we do this is simple - we fundamentally believe everyone has the right to experience the Internet in safety. Please enjoy, with our compliments.
and btw if you are looking for FREE antivirus software (and good one of coz), get AVG Anti-virus Free Edition. i have been using it for 3 years and it has helped me grab many viruses on the run. especially useful when your friends plugged in their usb/thumb/flash drives into your pc/laptop. and the best thing is, AVG uses relatively less system resources compared to some other BIG names which you may be familiar with ;)
